( pictured below )

the motor i was using was a V2 edition motor (11x2) on an MRT VX Pro speedo, upon looking at my car after the accedent i cheacked out the motor and noticed it was VERY stiff almost locked tight, i took the motor apart and it looked fine nothing looked out of place anywhere and the comm was fine. put it back together and it was tights again ( the endbell wasnt over tightend at any point, nor was the ring inside the can bent at all ).

can anyone point me in the direction of whats wrong with it ? if any one whos at york saturday coming would you be able ot have a look for me or give me a diognosis now lol ?. should i trash the can and endbell and keep the armeture
